Hi Community,

Primarily, we want to know how many Windows and Ubuntu VM's can be created in this configuration assuming each Ubuntu has 512 MB ram and 20 GB HD?

We are planning to create one Windows sever 2008 Virtual machine in this ESxi which shall consume all the resources of the ESxi and in this we want to run oracle VB and create at least 100 VMs, please advise is this possible using the Esxi server too.

Please find the attached snap shot of Esxi server. Your comments, reply is very appreciative.

Regards

Jainth

Not clear what you are trying to do. In theory, you can overcommit cores 10:1, meaning you could create 240 single core VMs. That is highly dependent on the workload of each VM. Safely, 100 single core VMs should fit. Your main issue is RAM, but assuming you are creating  single core, 0.5GB RAM Linux boxes, 100 will fit.

Where does that Windows VM fit in? Do you mean create a 24 core, 64GB RAM windows VM and run oravle and Linux as Hyper-V guests inside that?
